15 weeks

Yeah....I've been busy with work. I work all the time. It's tough, but it's good. So without further ado, here's week 15 (I missed 13 and 14).


15 weeks:
How far along? 15w4d (navel orange)
Weight gain? I think I'm up about 3 lbs.
Maternity Clothes? Just bought my first pair of pants, and a skirt, yesterday! I've been using my belly band but it's getting to the point where it's just not that comfortable anymore, and it makes my pant button stick out so I can only wear it with really baggy shirts, of which I do not have very many!
Who have you told? Our immediate family, the key people who need to know at work. That's it. Or, it was it, until my classmate flat out asked me the other day and I didn't deny it. I found that pretty rude but people don't realize they do rude/hurtful things, ya know?
Are you showing yet? When I tried on maternity clothes yesterday, then I definitely felt like I looked pregnant! I'd say not yet but soon.
Any movement? You know, I have felt a few things that could have been movement vs gas, but definitely made me stop and think, since it didn't feel like typical gas. My baby is measuring like a week ahead and I'm pretty in tune with my body after 4 YEARS of tracking ovulation, so....maybe?
Symptoms: Belly is growing. Boobs still hurt. Still congested. The nausea seems to be gone but I am starving sometimes. Otherwise I feel pretty good. 
Best moment this week: Finding out we are TEAM BLUE!!!! That was awesome, and that was the first time Mr. E was able to see the baby. Unfortunately at that ultrasound, they saw an intracardiac echogenic focus, which is usually nothing, but is a soft marker for Trisomy 21. Since my NT scan and numbers looked so good, and there are no other markers, they are not very worried, but we did get the cell free DNA test for more reassurance. We'll get those results next week.
Major milestones: TEAM BLUE! Also I have been bad about doing these so stopping progesterone at 13+6 was pretty big.
Major purchases this week: Maternity clothes: a pair of pants and a skirt.
Looking forward to next week: No appointments or big plans. Hoping for good results from the DNA testing. Also, wearing my comfy new clothes that don't press on my uterus!
